Preferred Steele 'Will Be 92,300,000 mad Cshsb Stock S.BOO.OOO List of firms Ceaeeraed. The saah, door, and blind manufacturing industry of Chicago has been consolidated, contracts for the taking over of the plants having been entered Into between the mill men and IS. C. Rttaher of the firm of Hatch Rltscher, attorneys. This action baa.

re sulted, from the Initiative of the owners. Following labor troubles last year, ter initiated by an agreement with the unions, the owners decided upon combination as the sola tion of varied difficulties. Competition bad brought about evils which "gentlemen's agreements" were not able to obviate. An outside agency was. therefore sought to achieve that which the manufacturers themselves could not accomplish.

On representa tions by the leading men of the trade that 75 per cent of the total. of capital employed would be taken In the stock of a company to be formed to take over the plants, with fur ther promises that this holding would be re served from the market until the value of the operation of the plants under the economies of consolidation was proved, Mr. Kitsner undertook the responsibility of placing the stock necessary to provide the money to In crease the 75 per cent to the 100 per cent rep resented by the value of the plants, and the 1 500.000 that Is assumed as essential lor working capital. Plants Talned at 92,000,000. The value ot the plants, it is stated, will be shown to be about S2.000.000.

With the work Ing capital 12.500.000 will be required. These figures are not given as absolute. Approxi matelv, however, they are correct. The total issue of securities of the new concern, the tentative name of which is the American Sash and Door company, will be $4,000,000. ot which $2,500,000 will be In preferred, cumulative.

7 per cent shares, the balance, S3.600.uvu, in common stock. Leading mill men assert that not only will the preferred stock earn Its annual dividend, but that the common stock will pay from 15 ner cent to SO per cent annually. About 90 per cent of the milling product and capital Is represented In the contracts held by Mr. Ritsher. he asserts.

His immediate associates among the mill men say that the others are all In line, and that the control of the Industrr has been secured. The business Is that ot the manufacture of the interior finish of new and repaired buildings In Cook county, the field, roughly speaking, being confined to a radius of twenty-five miles from the courthouse. The aggregate of the business Is S4.0OO.000. this being est! mated, on mill men's basis, at 15 per cent on the total of building construction, averaging S30.000.000 annually for the last seventeen years, shown in the building permits of the city. Tea Per Ceat Earned Capital.

Last vear was the hardest year of this period, yet the ststements furnished by the mill men to Mr. Ritsner.snow aoout iu per cent earned on capital employed. But. they assert. In the past their profit was from 20 to 30 per cent on total of output, and they say something approximating ctoseiy to inese ng-ures can readily be reached If their business Is removed from the restrictions which now hamper It.

Mill men present a showing of economies amounting to JwO.000 a year. By an equaiixa tion of prices they present a further earning of S400.0GO. This is a showing of 11.000.00 net earning on a capital of $8,000,000, or 1 per cent, with a fraction to spare. -'The real and personal property to be con veyed to the new company will be an asset of high value. It is estimated that the actual showing under appraisal will be: Real estate and buUdlngs, lumber, in stock ai-d manufactured, machinery, This with the $500,000 of working capital, will make up the total of the preferred Stock.

The question' of Increasing the fund In the treasury-of he organisation for fighting labor troubles with the miners, was dis eased. funds on hand amount to over but the ooerators feel Inclined to In crease this sum to at least $1,000,000. The matter was not definitely settled.

No action was taken regarding the Increase of prices of soft coal. Though the operators feel that they are working on too small a mania, ther think that at the present time, with labor troubles inreatening and the summer coming on.

SSO.OOO( Assets, 30,000. What anti-trust Democrats will have to say when they see the price of silver bullion being advanced by a combination of trusts Is a question which was propounded by ex- Senator T. Powers ot Montana at tbe And! torium Annex yesterday. "The price of sliver is destined to rise still higher than at present, said Mr. Powers, "and it will be accomplished through the manipulations of the copper trust and the lead-smelters trust.

These two trusts prac tically control the silver product ot the coua try. The mines In tbe copper trust produce over half the output of the country, and tbe lead smelters control a large percentage of the remainder. "Contrary to the popular Idea, there never has been a surplus of silver bullion in this country. The only surplus of silver that has ever existed was In the sliver dollars coined and plied up In the treasury. What has made silver cheap heretofore was the fact that the lead smelters sold their silver In competl tion with each other.

The removal of this competition caused the rise in silver, and the manipulation of the trusts Is bound to make it go still higher. It wss at the last time I saw the quotations and I believe It baa not advanced since, but It Is In the power of tbe trusts to advance It still more and nothing can keep silver down. "It seems to me this will put the free-silver Democrats who have been taking up the aatt trust cry In considerable of a quandry. Can they fight a trust which advances the price of the metal for whose remonetuauon uey are eLamoriaST? "The rislne- nrice ot silver, too. means in creasing prosperity In the West, and as there Is not a surplus of silver, the price can prob ably be maintained, with the price 01 surer at a flxure which will make prontaoie tne operation of mines which were unprofitable during tbe depression of silver, the force of the free-silver argument in tbe West will be weakened." The Leland hotel company yesterday made an assignment In the County court, scheduling assets of $30,000 and liabilities or about S6O.000.

Will H. Moore, a real-estate lawyer in the Marauette building, was named as assignee. All but three shares In the company are owned by Charles W. Dabb. who is manager of the hotel, and will continue in the management under the assignee.

Mr. Dabb said yesterday that his assignment was forced by Noble B. Judah. attorney for the owners of the hotel building, who Insisted on the rent being paid promptly. For four years.

Mr. Dabb said, the hotel bss been running behind $1,200 per month, and after of bis own money ne thoucht he ouaht to be relieved of tbe burden. Tbe labilities of tbe company consist of the $30,400 owing Mr. Dabb. $25,000 to the oia and new owners for back rent, and about $2,500 floating Indebtedness.

No changes will be made la tbe hotel force and Mr. Dabb may continue to conduct It when released from his liabilities by the court. Baron voa Bismarck and Baron Cornelius von Heyl of Germany are at the Auditorium Annex. Baron von Biamarck is a cousin ot Prince Bismarck. "I am a practical farmer.
